Thanks! My dad was just like that with his grey, but it took my brother an additional decade and now me (I'm the oldest) so I think I'm on a decent schedule for getting them. I actually love my hair, but seeing the amount of grey for the first time after that haircut was a surprise, lol.
Unfortunately, no. That's why I have both; TiVo for all OTA info and recording and the Roku for all my streaming channels (Netflix, Vudu, Amazon Prime, Plex, Google Play, and even my local PBS channel). They work great as a team.
This is my set-up as well, with the addition of a Roku 3 (so many more channels than the TiVo) and a Mac mini as a media server for my own music and movies. I've had this set up for almost 2 years now, and it is working really well. I decided to get Netflix this summer (when all my regular network shows are on hiatus) to binge on their shows - Daredevil, Grace & Frankie, and just started Sense8. I think I'll be doing this next summer, as well. To round things out, I purchase a couple of shows from Vudu that I loved on cable (Major Crimes, Teen Wolf), but the vast majority of my television is OTA with TiVo. I'm totally spoiled by all these options and the way I can fast forward through commercials, or avoid them completely.
As I said, I've got some good years left in me and I've actually gotten some lovely comments on the grey so I'm going to keep a spring in my step as I totter into "old age" - at least until the hips and knees start to go. ;)
This is very true. I've only been on Reddit a few months so I haven't had a lot of comments (and never started a discussion), but I've noticed that most of my carefully crafted comments tend to stay at 1 or a couple of points over. But the one quick throw-away comment I made in a moment of light-hearted fun? Double digits.
I had an inkling a few years ago when I realized I was thrilled I never had kids because I simply don't have the patience for them anymore. But it really struck me last year when I got a pixie cut and saw there was a LOT of grey hair hidden under my locks. The thing is I've got several years left in me and I don't really feel old on a day-to-day basis. But those grey hairs are telling a different story. :)
